    Lamela giving Vardy a free run at our defence. Dier cynically takes him out and goes in the book.

    We've done ok in this half, but I think that we need a change or two.

    Davies losing his head and gives away a silly free-kick in a dangerous area. Silly stuff.

    Kane finally gets something of a chance, but he's stumbling and Schmeichel's in the right place.
    Easy save in the end, unfortunately.

    A couple of really nice touches from Lamela in the build up to that shot, but he's not doing enough.

    Mahrez dives to the floor and we see the last of Lamela.
    On comes Alli to inject a bit of energy.

    Can FIFA hurry up their legislation to allow teams to use four subs please? The midfield needs an overhaul in this match.

    Ok ... my blind optimism didn't pay off...The truth is that our lack of transfers up front and a badly designed preseason are costing us...am mystified why we have entered our 3rd match with an unfit striker and no other options

    Mahrez hits the post from nowhere. Cheap giveaway, nobody challenges him and we're saved by the woodwork.

    What has to happen to Dembele for him to actually get a free-kick?
    Is it about five consecutive fouls in the same move or something?

    Bournemouth back in the lead at the Boleyn, as everyone goes for a drink.
    Most of the West Ham fans will be having a few, I think.

    Does dembele have to turn back into the opposition every time he gets the ball? he could go forward but no he wants to turn round and try to dribble round the player he' s just beaten. then he loses the ball.....

    Leicester look ****ing knackered.
    If this was a boxing match, then I'd be waiting for them to go down from a body shot and fail to beat the count.
    As it's us though, I'm waiting for the wild swing to our glass jawed defence, unfortunately.

    Kane clipped by Schlupp, but there's not a lot on that.
    Probably the right decision to give nothing.

    Carroll on for Dembele. Time for him to prove himself at this level.

    Albrighton replaced by Kante for Leicester. Probably would've done that earlier, to be honest.

    It would be typical for some Kante to score against us. Sorry.

    Gokan Inler replaces Drinkwater. Two in a minute.
    The Swiss bloke was linked with Arsenal before he joined Napoli. Good replacement for Cambiasso.

    Goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Alli!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's great from Kane. Decent ball by Chadli and it's nice to see someone making a far post run.
    Great start for the youngster.
